World Industrial And Cotton Exposition Medal, Rulau LA-NO-57A, MS66 PL

Description

I have for sale a souvenir medal that commemorates the 1884-85 World's Industrial and Cotton Exposition that was held in New Orleans, Louisiana.  This medal is brass, it is 1 1/4 inch in diameter, encapsulated by the Numismatic Guaranty company and graded MS 66 PL by them.  This medal is listed in the Standard Catalog of U.S. Tokens by Rulau & the NGC label list the Rulau # as LA-NO-57A.  The white you see in the photos are a flash back from the camera.  The medal obverse shows the main building in the center, at the top rim it reads THE MAIN BUILDING and below the building it reads NEW ORLEANS - 1884 '85.  On the reverse, inside a wreath, it reads SOUVENIR - OF THE - WORLDS - INDUSTRIAL - AND - COTTON - EXPOSITION.  Please see more in my EBAY STORE at TE Collectables.  (18,612 NRR)
